What to stream this week: A supernatural Australian murder mystery and five more picks
This week's picks include a creepy Australian thriller with supernatural vibes, an Eddie Murphy and Pete Davidson action comedy and a three-season binge of Reservoir Dogs. Playing Gracie Darling (Paramount+) ★★★ Opening with a flashback to a teen seance in an abandoned shack that quickly spins out of control, this Australian mystery comes on strong. There are signs of possession, ominous nightmares and a nerve-jangling score. 'Let me out!' demands an unseen presence at the seance, and the show has the same desire. Playing Gracie Darling wants to take the small-town murder mystery, where the crime of a previous era seeps to the surface, and use the supernatural to bend the genre's conventions. We should appreciate that seditious intent. Without it, this limited series could be overly familiar. The seance's convenor in 1997, 14-year-old Gracie Darling (Kristina Bogic), was never seen again, leaving her best friend, Joni Grey (Eloise Rothfield), traumatised. Cut to today and mother of two Joni (Morgana O'Reilly), now a child psychologist, is drawn to her coastal hometown, where Gracie's niece, Frankie, is now the face on missing posters. It is, as on so many other shows, happening again. Loading The show's creator, Miranda Nation, previously made the 2018 independent feature Undertow, and her work examines how female perception can be a source of strength and vulnerability. Once Joni starts making inquiries, at the request of local police officer Jay Rajeswaran (Rudi Dharmalingam), who was also present on the fateful 1997 night, her empathy and expertise encounter supernatural portents, not least recurring sightings of the secret symbol she and Gracie created as teenagers. Every flashback adds to the unease. Nation has her own take on the procedural. Joni and Jay are sidelined by barely seen homicide detectives, so their unofficial search unfolds in family visits and difficult reunions. Joni's understanding is stretched by the presence of her mother, the flinty Pattie (Harriet Walter), and her two daughters. Conversations between teenagers, including Jay's daughter Raffy (Saiesha Sundaralingam) and Joni's Mina (Chloe Brink), illuminate their parents. Suspects of various kinds dot the narrative, including the friction of Joni possibly being compromised in some way. Director Jonathan Brough (Bay of Fires) accentuates all this without initially tipping over into pure horror. Only the first three of six episodes were provided for review, so it's unclear how Playing Gracie Darling resolves what is a pungent, occasionally blunt, set-up. Certainly, with its dark forest canopy and a sense that past crimes and otherworldly incursions are one and alike, the show taps into a lineage that spans Picnic at Hanging Rock and The Kettering Incident. 'Can you feel it?' are the very first words spoken, and the answer is a clear yes. Reservation Dogs (seasons 1-3) ★★★★½ (Disney+) Any serious list of the best new shows from the past five tumultuous years of television has to include 2021's Reservation Dogs. The three seasons of this bittersweet coming-of-age comedy, set on a Native American reservation in the back blocks of Oklahoma, constitute a small miracle. Now that all three seasons have found a permanent home on Disney+, this series should be a binge to savour. Please put it atop your to-view list. Few shows have a more telling, idiosyncratic sense of place, or the harsh hold it exerts on the next generation. Creator and showrunner Sterlin Harjo, with some doors meaningfully opened by his successful co-creator, Kiwi filmmaker Taika Waititi, offered a lived-in experience of intergenerational poverty, idiosyncratic spiritualism, collective trauma and deadpan hilarity. You quickly understood why the teenage protagonists were determined to skip town, and how difficult that would turn out to be. Loading The young Native American leads, including Devery Jacobs as Elora and D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai as Bear, gave terrific performances that grow with their characters. It's striking how the show evolved, capable of taking in a hang at the local medical clinic, a self-contained episode where Elora's driving test with Bill Burr's instructor goes sideways, and community events where multiple generations hold a mirror to each other. The characters felt marooned, but Reservation Dogs never failed to take you somewhere new. Leanne ★★½ (Netflix) While it's not as common now, stand-up success to sitcom star has long been an entertainment assembly line in America. It gets a southern gal spin in this latest variant, which was co-created by comic Leanne Morgan and sitcom bigwig Chuck Lorre (The Big Bang Theory). Morgan's fictional alter-ego is a wife and mother from suburban Tennessee whose husband (Ryan Stiles) walks out on her for a younger woman after 33 years together. After the punchline-friendly anger comes starting over in her 50s. It's predictable, and it starts slowly, but Morgan is undeniably likeable. Emmanuelle ★★ (Binge) A 21st century feminist remake of the 1974 softcore porn hit about a young woman's search for sexual pleasure in Thailand is a valid concept, and everyone involved in this erotic drama has first-rate credentials, from French filmmaker Audrey Diwan (Happening) to stars Noemie Merlant (Portrait of a Lady on Fire) and Will Sharpe (Too Much). But the film, in which Merlant's title character travels to Hong Kong for her job evaluating luxury hotels, is moribund in its contemporary critique and cinematic chemistry. It's a tepid piece, nowhere near daring enough. Revealed: Building Bad ★★★½ (Stan*) The Revealed series works extremely well as recaps of complex investigative journalism: detailed reporting across the print and broadcast outlets of Nine (the owner of Stan and this masthead) can be woven into a comprehensive narrative. That's the case with this feature-length documentary about rampant corruption and underworld infiltration of the powerful CFMEU, a union now under administration. The journalists, including Revealed mainstay Nick McKenzie, explain how a culture of fear and extortion took hold across the construction industry. 'That's business,' says a fixer covertly recorded. 'Everybody eats.' The Pickup ★½ Amazon Prime Video Painfully long at just 96 minutes, this inert Hollywood action-comedy has a placeholder script that was never updated, instead hoping that the stars – Eddie Murphy, Pete Davidson and Keke Palmer – could manufacture laughs on set with their performances. They do not. Veteran director Tim Story (Ride Along) can only pad a plot that has Murphy and Davidson as mismatched armoured car guards whose vehicle becomes the target of professional thieves. The implausible ensues, which would be fine if the action and/or comedy was entertaining enough to allow for the suspension of disbelief. It is not.

Bindi Irwin gives emotional health update after endometriosis surgery
Bindi Irwin has had her appendix and '51 endometriosis lesions' removed. The 27-year-old Australian star — the daughter of late Crocodile Hunter legend Steve Irwin — has given an update amid her long battle with endometriosis following her diagnosis in 2023, which came after a decade of chronic pain. She wrote on Instagram this week alongside a smiling selfie: '13 years of fighting for answers. '51 endometriosis lesions, a chocolate cyst, and my appendix were all removed across two surgeries with @seckinmd. 'My hernia from giving birth that was unzipping — was taken care of. 'I can FINALLY say that I'm feeling better. Genuinely healing.' Endometriosis is a disease where abnormal tissue grows outside the uterus. Irwin underwent emergency surgery in May, which meant she missed a gala honouring her father, who died in 2006. Now, she added that after her health struggles — which she's been very candid about with fans — she's finally able to 'function' again. 'I cannot express the gravity of my emotions as I am beginning to recognise myself again. 'I felt utterly ashamed as a teenager and young adult being told that my pain was just part of being a woman. 'I felt lesser. I felt hurt. I felt weak. That is not OK.' The conservationist and activist — who has daughter Grace Warrior, four, with husband Chandler Powell — is keen to get rid of the 'stigma' around conversations about women's health and health care. Bindi missed her late dad's annual gala in May after rupturing her appendix, and her brother Robert explained her absence at the time. He told People magazine: 'She's going to be OK, but surgery — out of all the things we were ready for, that was not one of them. She's just come out the other side of endometriosis and now the appendix goes. Health is so important — it really is.'

'Gentle and generous' film critic David Stratton dies
Veteran film critic David Stratton, whose partnership with Margaret Pomeranz made him a beloved figure on Australian TV screens, has died aged 85. His family announced his death on Thursday, telling the ABC he died peacefully in hospital near his home in the Blue Mountains. "David's passion for film, commitment to Australian cinema, and generous spirit touched countless lives," his family said. "He was adored as a husband, father, grand and great grandfather and admired friend." Stratton retired in 2023 because of ill health, after a celebrated career as a film critic, writer, educator and historian that spanned 57 years. An English migrant who arrived in Australia as "ten pound Pom" in 1963, Stratton worked for SBS from 1980 as their film consultant and introduced the SBS Cinema Classics on Sunday nights. His best known role was co-hosting the long-running SBS TV program The Movie Show with Margaret Pomeranz, from 1986 to 2004, when they moved to the ABC to co-host At the Movies with Margaret and David. They retired from the show in 2014. He wrote six books and lectured in film history at the University of Sydney's Centre for Continuing Education until 2023. He also served as a jury member at many prestigious international film festivals throughout his career. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese celebrated Stratton as someone who had shared his love of film with the country "with dry humour and sharp insight". "All of us who tuned in to At the Movies respected him for his deep knowledge and for the gentle and generous way he passed it on," he posted on social media. ABC Managing Director Hugh Marks paid tribute to the prodigious film critic. "Incredible insight, a love of the craft of movie making and a respect for his audience, David was a credit to our industry," he said. "He made an enormous contribution to the ABC that we will remember fondly. We are thinking of his family and friends at this time" Stratton's family issued a special request to movie goers, asking that they celebrate his "remarkable life and legacy" by watching their favourite movie, or David's favourite movie, Singin' In the Rain. "David's family would like to express their heartfelt gratitude for the overwhelming support from friends, colleagues, and the public recently and across his lifetime," his family said.
